Tuesday - Hot and sunny


I woke up this morning and the room was already 29 degrees. Oh good grief. I opened the window and turned on my fan. I went downstairs then came back up and put on my water pot and watched the rest of the news. I also watched the early morning news too.


I got up a bit later and went downstairs to grab breakfast. K was bopping around a bit and was wandering around the house in a dress that she hadn’t done up all the way. Since she leaves the windows open downstairs and there are workers in the house being built next door I thought she should button up! I doubt if she understood me!


I worked on my column a bit today and I finished writing about two and a half films. Yay! If I can do the same for the rest of the week I’ll be finished on time. If!


I started watching a bit of a movie but decided not to watch it. Good call I think. I watched the news and then worked a little more on my column. 


I went downstairs around 5:30 tonight to get a start on dinner. I made a roasted vegetable and sausage roast in my air fryer tonight. It worked really well. We had that with salad and the rest of my bean salad. F brought some rice on his way back to the house and so K and F both had rice with their meals. I think it was quite popular, dinner I mean, not the rice!


After dinner, I did the dishes of course and listened to my podcasts. The dishes weren’t too bad tonight as I’d only used my air fryer and I had done a lot of the prep dishes before dinner. I was still hot and tired. We did have the air conditioner going downstairs, but the kitchen still was hot. Too hot.


F got himself ready to go shopping but I had to go upstairs and change my clothes. Tonight I suggested going over to Mina. I asked F if he wanted to stay in the car, and he did. He gave me some money and I did the shopping. Yay.


It was so much easier to go through the store without F. That sounds a bit mean, but I didn’t ask him for advice, which he never gives anyway. It took a while, especially since I had to text F a couple of times about things that he wanted to have. 


We came back to the house and I put the groceries away. I asked F to set up the rice cooker for tomorrow since I’m planning to make a dish with rice for dinner.  He did. 


We had a quiet evening in. I watched some Apple TV and then the new FBI International. It isn’t quite as rah-rah as a lot of those shows tend to be, but I’m still not sold on it. I’m not sure if I’ll be watching it for the whole season. We’ll see!


That’s about it for me. Tomorrow I’m cooking again and also writing part of my column. Wish me luck with it. Oh, and I have to try and stay cool too! It was 30 degrees up here before noon today. I’m afraid I turned on the air conditioner. I was quite dehydrated in the morning. 


I’m digressing again. Tomorrow will likely be just as hot. Come back later if you like and hear all about my day. Until tomorrow….
